Recent reviews of Japanese Gyoza and Bouchons Dumpling Masterclass
- 5/5 from Judith, attended Feb 2026: I booked this course as a Christmas present for my partner. We are both big fans of dumplings, so this course was perfect! We learned how to make the dough and fillings from scratch, how to fold two different shape of dumpling, and then different ways to cook them as well. Corrine made the class fun and informative at the same time, she was a great teacher. The best bit was possibly sitting down to eat the dumplings at the end - by that time the room was full of delicious flavours and we were very excited to taste what we had created! Corrine offers a range of classes, we are already considering coming back for another one.
- 5/5 from Ruby Mayhew, attended Dec 2025: I bought this class as a gift for my daughter for her birthday and she loved it. She really enjoyed the tuition and learning and now feels confident in making dumplings and yoga herself. The kitchen space was comfortable and the environment was friendly and relaxed. I'm actually going to do the pastry course myself following her experience. I'm so happy to have discovered this school.
- 5/5 from Kirsty, attended Nov 2025: Would 100% recommend! I attended the Dumplings dreams: a taste of Japan and Reunion Island class where we made chicken gyozas and pork bouchon. The teacher was so lovely and the food was absolutely amazing.

My passion for cooking comes from my childhood. I was born on the island of Réunion, a small French colony off the coast of Madagascar. Although my parents moved to France when I was very small, the spirit of the island was very much alive in our home, and especially in our kitchen.I love introducing a touch of sunshine into my cooking and often add tropical flavours from Réunion to my desserts to give a vibrant twist to the elegant French classics. All the recipes used at Gourmandises Académie are my own, and each one has been developed with time and a lot of love. I’m so happy to have been recognised with three stars in the prestigious Great Taste Awards. I am excited to share some of these recipes with you and look forward to welcoming you into my home as a student of the Gourmandises Académie.
